The soul is love, joy. Joy. Peace. Wisdom.
Don’t compare your path with anybody else’s. Your path is unique to you.
I would like my life to be a statement of love and compassion--and where it isn't, that's where my work lies.
The person who says, 'I'm enlightened' probably isn't.
My work as a human being is to quiet my mind, open my heart and do what I can to relieve the suffering with as much wisdom, skill, whatever I got.
Unconditional love really exists in each of us. It is part of our deep inner being. It is not so much an active emotion as a state of being. It's not 'I love you' for this or that reason, not 'I love you if you love me.' It's love for no reason, love without an object.
